7.0 View and Manage Tasks

By default, Tasks lists requests for permissions that you are responsible for approving or denying. You can take action on these requests one at a time or perform a bulk action for multiple simple requests that do not require detailed information.

If you are serving as a proxy or delegate for others tasks, you might be expected to complete tasks that are assigned to someone else. For more information about proxy assignments, see Act as or Assign a Proxy. And, for more information about delegation assignments, see Section 15.0, View and Manage Delegations

To see the tasks of others, click Others and search the tasks by request or recipient name.

NOTE:

  • You can search your tasks using Reassigned Tasks, Returned Tasks, or Delegated Tasks filters. Using Delegated Tasks filter for Self shows only the tasks that are delegated to you.

  • If you are an administrator, you can also filter tasks using Assigned to me, Recipient as me filter.

  • If you are searching others tasks you can use Returned Tasks, Reassigned Tasks, or Delegated Tasks filter. Using Delegated tasks filter for Others shows all the tasks that are delegated to other users in the system.
